I wanted to get in touch about a comedy event we’re running here at Project Arts Centre tomorrow night.

All acts involved have donated their time, as the event is a fundraiser for the National Campaign for the Arts who do amazing work in advocating on behalf of the cultural sector in Ireland.

We thought it would be nice to bring a bit of laughter to a wet weekend.

And the craic.

 Mr  [Eamon] Gilmore said he was aware that a US plane armed with a fixed weapon landed at Shannon Airport in the period prior to September 2013.

He said the case was raised at the highest possible level with the US Embassy.

An official there said it was an isolated incident that had taken place as a result of an administrative error, he said.

The minister said assurances were given that steps had been taken to prevent any recurrence.
